no personal experience, but from the general consensus, they're probably not the best idea. i'd recommend the poly spacers. i ran them for 2 years in my zj.

Ya, theyre actually not that bad, I have them on the wifes TJ, she doesnt really use it so Im not worried about stresses on the aluminum, since theyre not cast. They do seem a little unstable but work fine, even disconnected they dont seem to present a problem, its been over 6 months and nothing bad to report
do it if you dont care about quality, or are just a general cheapskate

They are cheap and effective.. safe for trail duty, not quite! save your money. You can make those for about $10 with materials from home depot.

Thanks for the info, I was thinking the aluminum would be better than the poly because aluminum doesn't flex. My thinking was that the spring would stay in place better than the poly spacers.

run poly, youll have no problem with them, everyone runs them and has no complaints! just remember to place the spring isolator under the spacer, not the other way around

correct, the poly will flex more, and you want that, you should have rubber isolators between your springs and buckets stock

none, you merely isolating road some of the road vibrations that are being transfered through the coil spring.

I figured it wouldn't make a big deal.
